[mythtv-users] Bug in the On-Screen Menu

While playing around with Myth, I've noticed that once in a while the OSM doesn't display correctly.  Specifically when watching a HD channel.  The menu options seem to squeeze together like changing the *leading* value of the font to a hugely negative number.  Each line gets squashed together.  Take a look at my crappy photos:

Don't pay any attention to the crappy TV or the crappy programming.  This is specifically for debug. :)

As you can see it, seems to work fine in lower res displays (704x480) everything is spaced very nicely.  And upon entering LiveTV on a 1920x1080i station it looks fine as in #1.  If I just change back and forth from 704x480 to 1920x1080 it gets worse and worse... that's all I did in order to create all the photos.  If I exit to the menu and enter LiveTV it resets and looks good again until I go channel surfing again.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
-Greg
